  Double thanks to you "Half Activist" (since I haven't thanked you yet
for the help you gave me on my other post today). Just out of curiosity :
do you know how to do it when debugging from the ordinary
terminal instead of from Xcode ? Of course, I always use Xcode
for debugging, but this is a meaningful (if stupid) question in
itself ...

                                         Cheers,
                                                 Ewan
